Katie Dixon: We are in the eye now and it’s totally clear. You can see stars. (Dublin, GA)
Katie Dixon: Whatever they tell you to expect…expect worse. It’s starting to slow down FINALLY here (Dublin, GA). That was the scariest thing I have ever experienced in my life.
Katie Dixon: I think we are about to be in the eye wall. It’s bad here. (Dublin, GA) Wind and rain and I can’t see but I can hear trees or branches or whatever falling. Power keeps going in and out probably about to go out completely. Its very loud outside.
Debbie Freeman: I am in Valdosta, trying to survive this horrible hurricane. Trees have fallen and things have hit my house. I’ve never been so scared. The eye should be coming over us any time now. I’m in the closet with my dogs.
Marsheila Bush-Rhodes: I’m 70 miles to the right of Cedar Key, FL. We are getting 80 mph winds now. It’s going to be a long night! Prayers from Florida to Georgia.
Roxie Barron: Sarasota. Got slammed, (and continuing to get slammed) with storm surge. Monster storm.
Ann Randall Reese: I’m concerned! All my siblings and their families live in southwest GA and I just have to trust God to see them all through this storm! I’m concerned for all of us in other parts of GA possibly in the eye of the storm. Our God is in control.
Debbie Freeman: It’s going to come right over me. I’m scared to death! The dogs and I will be hunkering down in my bedroom closet.
Sandy Wyatt Cox: I hate wind. Because we have so many trees in our yard we are going to the church.
Katie Dixon: Middle Georgia is calm again…some gusts but nothing crazy at the moment.
Stephanie Miller: I am not nervous for us, but I am for my children and grands and friends who are scared. I have always been a storm lover and sleep best when it rages, but I don’t like being without power. My thoughts are that to be afraid is to not have faith. We do have a lot of huge 60-plus-year-old pines all around our house, and I am praying that they stay strong.
Amber Gilbert: I plan to do FB lives during it! LOL
Gaylon Palmer: My vacation home is in Lanark. I’m sure I’ll get some pics.
